Chapter Eleven

Jasmine paced the floor in front of her closet. Cam would be there at any moment and she wasn't even dressed! She flung clothes around the room as she searched for the perfect outfit. After going to the racetrack that afternoon, Cam had called asking Jasmine to dinner. She had readily accepted, thus leading to her predicament.

"Whoa, it looks like a bomb went off in here." Tori said dodging a pair of flying pants.

"I just can't find the right thing to wear." Jasmine moaned flopping down on the bed.

"You really like him don't you?" Tori asked sitting down beside the girl.

"Like who?" Jasmine asked with mock innocence. Tori smiled slyly and picked up a black dress that lay on the floor.

"This will look GREAT on you." she said throwing the dress at Jasmine, who caught it in mid-air.

"Thanks Tor." She said.

"No problem," Tori replied, "Just do me a favor."

"What's that?"

"Knock his socks off."

"Don't worry, I will." Jasmine laughed as Tori winked and left the room.
Closing his eyes, Cam drew in a deep breath and lifted his hand to knock on the door. Tori answered with a sly smile and ushered him inside the apartment.

"Jazz will be out in a minute." She said.

"Oh...okay." Cam said nervously. He glanced around the neat and orderly apartment, his foot tapping nervously against the floor.

"Tori," Jasmine called from somewhere down the hallway, "I'm borrowing your silver hoops."

"Okay." Tori called back. She glanced over at Cam; "You can sit down you know."

"Oh, well...I'm fine." Cam mumbled. As hard as it was to believe, Cam had never really been on a date before, and he was VERY nervous about that night. Jasmine was unlike any girl he'd ever known. She was special. She was beautiful, but she seemed not to know it. She was smart and Cam felt as if he could discuss things with her that the others wouldn't be able to comprehend. Never before had Cam felt this was about a woman.

"Hey Cam." Cam looked up from his shoes and his breath caught in his throat. Jasmine stood before him, a smile on her face and her eyes sparkling. The black dress she wore clung to her body like a second skin. The plunging neckline teased Cam with hints of flesh, his eyes catching on the medallion around her neck. The hemline stopped just above her knees and showed off her shapely legs. She wore black, strappy heels and her toes were painted the same shade of pink as her hair.

"Well," she said twirling around in front of him, the hem of her dress rising ever so slightly, "what do you think?"

"You look...amazing." He said, fighting to get the words out. A light blush crept up Jasmine's face.

"Thank you." she said.

"Are you ready to go?" he asked, his mind suddenly returning to him.

"Yeah, see ya later Tori." Jasmine said grabbing her coat.

"Bye you guys, have fun." Tori called after them.
The full moon shone down on the water, its light reflecting off the ocean like a million tiny diamonds. Cam and Jasmine strode down the beach hand in hand, the sand giving way beneath their bare feet. They had just finished with their dinner at a small café and had decided to take a walk. They were quiet, both afraid to break the tranquil silence that had befallen them.
Jasmine breathed in the salty air, filling her lungs with the freshness of it. Things were so perfect that she could almost forget what had brought her to this world, and the fact that she didn't belong here. Cam's hand was warm around hers, the heat of his skin transferring to her body and warming her. She could feel him watching her and smiled gently.

"I had a great time tonight." She said quietly, glancing over at Cam who looked down at her. Their eyes met and a shiver of delicious anticipation ran down Jazz's spine.

"I did too." Cam replied just as quietly. His hand slowly unraveled from hers and traveled up her arm and neck to finally brush gently against her cheek. His thumb ran along her bottom lip and Jasmine's lips parted instinctively. Cam leaned his head down and his mouth was only inches from her own.

"Oh how romantic." An annoyingly sarcastic and familiar voice said.

"It is isn't it." Replied another voice, this one just as familiar and just as annoying. Jasmine and Cam broke apart and stared at Kapri and Marah.

"What do you airheads want?" Jasmine barked, irked that her first date with Cam, not to mention their almost kiss had been so rudely interrupted.

"Uncle Lothor wants to see you." Kapri snapped with her hands on her hips, glaring at girl.

"Oh really." Jasmine said, "Well then I must go at once." Her sarcasticness was not lost on Kapri.

"See, I told you she would listen to us." Marah said stupidly.

"Shut up." Kapri snapped at her sister, hitting her upside the head.

"Ow!" Marah cried, rubbing her head.

"Are you gonna come on your own," Kapri said, returning her attention to Jazz, "or do we have to make you?" A look passed between Cam and Jasmine and they sprang into action.
Okay, so it wasn't the best chapter, but I realized I hadn't updated in like forever and I wanted to get another chapter out for all of you who have been waiting for this update. Please review and tell me what you think. I probably won't be updating this story very often because I want to focus on some other stories that I've been neglecting and some stories that I want to start. I've been losing interest in my Power Ranger's fan fics, so I don't know if, after this chapter, I'll be updating at all. Just wanted to fill you all in on that and I hope that you will review.
